The whole transaction of religious conversion has been made mechanical and spiritless. Faith may now be exercised without a jar to the moral life and without embarrassment to the Adamic ego. Christ may be "received" without creating any special love for Him in the soul of the receiver. The man is "saved", but he is not hungry or thirsty after God. In fact, he is specifically taught to be satisfied and encouraged to be content with little. The modern scientist has lost God amid the wonders of His world; we Christians are in real danger of losing God amid the wonders of His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fashion of the day has been to attempt to convert by insisting on conversion; to exhort men to be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7200]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fashion of the day has been to attempt to convert by insisting on conversion; to exhort men to be converted; to tell them to be sure they look at Christ instead of simply holding up Christ; to tell them to have faith rather than to supply its object; to lead them to work up their minds, instead of impressing upon them the thought of Him who can savingly work in them; to bid them to be sure their faith is justifying, that it is not dead, formal, self-righteous, or merely moral, instead of delineating Him whose image, fully delineated, destroys deadness, formality, self-righteousness; to rely on words, vehemence, eloquence, and the like, rather than to aim at conveying the one great idea, whether in words or not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7200</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Worship and birth to me are known By look, by bearing, and by tone,  Not by furred robe, or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51114]]></link><description><![CDATA[Worship and birth to me are known By look, by bearing, and by tone,  Not by furred robe, or broidered zone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51114</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Future Shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57985]]></link><description><![CDATA[Future Shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time. -Alvin Toffler.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This was an unwarranted and vicious attack. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35856]]></link><description><![CDATA[This was an unwarranted and vicious attack.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35856</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As a new artist you're just hoping people notice you any way possible just so you can get your music ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39710]]></link><description><![CDATA[As a new artist you're just hoping people notice you any way possible just so you can get your music to them, ...
